The upcoming Madoka☆Magica RPG smartphone game, Magia Record Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden, recently had it’s release date postponed. The game was originally scheduled to release this May and was postponed until July before being postponed again, but Aniplex has just announced that the game will officially release on August 22! The mobile game will appear for free in iOS and Android app stores in Japan.

With the recent English release of the Fate/Grand Order mobile game, perhaps there is a chance that Aniplex will do the same for this game as well? One can only hope.

A new 1:30 promotional video has been released for the upcoming Madoka☆Magica RPG smartphone game, Magia Record Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden!

The video previews a new group of magical girls along with in-game animations, battling gameplay, transformation scenes, dialogue, and the game’s theme song, “Kakawari”, by TrySail. The song was previously played in a short 15 second commercial back in late September. The mobile RPG follows the main character, Iroha Tamaki, on her mission to find her younger sister, Ui. Along the way, she runs into Madoka on a similar search for her friend Homura.

The official Twitter account recently announced they are holding a campaign during their pre-registration period where the player can receive a free Homura Akemi (glasses version) that can be used in the game.
